Wynonna brings a track-record most musicians would envy: 20 No. 1 hits, a performance at the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize Concert in Norway and an autobiography (now in paperback). A six-year run as part of The Judds brought her five Grammy, nine Country Music Association and eight Billboard awards. Jethro Tull, still led by co-founder, vocalist and flute-playing Ian Anderson, formed in 1968, and was knitted together with the remains of two blues-rock bands. The band made its reputation as a concept-album band rather than with its singles, and went on as a leader in progressive music through the 1990s. About 60 million albums, three Top-10 singles, and more than 2,500 concerts in 40 countries left a large fan base in the band's wake, and a recent album, "The Best of Acoustic Jethro Tull," reinforces Jethro Tull's reputation. Canadian Bryan Adams is not only a rock singer-songwriter but a photographer as well. He'll perform with George Thorogood and the Destroyers. Adams, with three Academy Award nominations for songwriting, joined the Music Hall of Fame in 2006 at Canada's Juno Awards. "Everything I Do (I Do It for You)" spent a record 16 consecutive weeks at the top of the UK singles chart. His work has reached the top of Billboard charts, including the single "Heaven." His songs also appear in film sound tracks. Mindy Smith: A few years ago, the alt-country-folk singer-songwriter started bagging awards, including Best New Artist from the Americana Music Association, the lead-off single on the Dolly Parton tribute album, and an appearance on Lifetime network's Women Rock special. Her new CD, "Long Island Shores," is an indication that she'll be a rock-solid winner for years to come. Eric Bibb: Gospel-infused folk-blues and Americana will be delivered with a rich voice and admirable finger-picking. Bluesman Bibbs is touring with music from "Diamond Days." He'll be joined by R&B singer Kathi McDonald and Bob Caloca, who has played with Pure Prairie League and Spiral Staircase. George Winston: Multiple Grammy-winning pianist Winston was first known for his Windham Hill series focusing on the seasons. He's since branched out with "Linus & Lucy: the Music of Vince Guaraldi" and "Night Divides Day: The Music of the Doors." Out and about: Pianist Bill Mays: The Invention Trio, translates into piano jazz steeped in gospel, pop and classical music, making for an eclectic mix and music for a new CD, "Fantasy" (Monday and Tuesday, Jazz Alley) … Grammy-nominated soul man James Hunter is touring with music from "People Gonna Talk" (Tonight and Saturday, Triple Door) … Vocalist-songwriter Amel Larrieux (Groove Theory) has had success with "Tell Me" (Billboard Top 100, R&B Top Five). Her latest theme is American Standards (Thursday through Oct. 7, Jazz Alley) … Brit indie-rock band Arctic Monkeys has charted some singles, and the group's 2006 album "Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not" became the fastest-selling debut album in British music history (Saturday, WaMu Theater) … Blues-rock jam band The Black Crowes are back on tour (Tuesday, Paramount). Wynonna's latest project is "Her Story." Co-founder Ian Anderson brings Jethro Tull to Seattle. Bryan Adams performs tonight in Seattle. George Winston performs Saturday in Mount Vernon.
